Client Success: Achieving ILR As An Unmarried Partner With Complex Finances

At Richmond Chambers, we pride ourselves on guiding our clients through complex immigration processes. Recently, immigration barrister partner Gillian McCall assisted a client to successfully obtain Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) as an unmarried partner, despite significant challenges in meeting the route's financial requirement.

Case Overview: ILR as an Unmarried Partner

The applicant was applying for ILR under the Unmarried Partner route. While her partner's income far exceeded the minimum threshold required by the Home Office, his employment situation presented unique complexities. His role spanned multiple jurisdictions, and the corporate structure of his business was intricate. This created potential difficulties in demonstrating compliance with the financial requirement under the immigration rules.
